Chapter 173: The First Half of the Night
Late at night.
Time flies like a white horse, and the day passes quickly.
Ye Chen was lying on the roof, pillow on the tiles.
After leaving the courtyard, his mood calmed down a lot. Although he was still angry about the fact that the Lori-like dean had asked Qing Yin to participate in the trial of the Divine Fire Tower, after listening to Tang Kede's analysis in the Xuanzi class, he was a little relieved.
According to Tang Kede, the magic of the Divine Fire Tower lies not only in the trials of each tower, but also in the spiritual aura contained in the Divine Fire Tower.
That aura is unique and self-contained. The richness is comparable to the Longtan ancestral spirit of the Panlong Empire. Even if you are not a cultivator, sitting in the static chamber on the first floor of the Divine Fire Tower for a day and obtaining the same enlightenment is just as incredible.
And that Longtan ancestral qi, Ye Chen also understands it.
It is said that it was a thousand years ago, at the beginning of the establishment of the Panlong Empire. The Ancestral Emperor Danlong once subdued a giant Jiao at the peak of the cave ruins.
Jujiao promised to protect the Panlong Empire for the Ancestral Emperor Dragon Pill. Until a hundred years later, the Ancestral Emperor Dragon Pill failed to preach and fell, and the giant Jiao reneged on its promise, broke free from the shackles, sucked the origin of the Ancestral Emperor Dragon Pill when it fell, broke through the cave ruins, and rushed to the sky!
However, the giant Jiao, which has been solidified by a hundred years of shackles, has not even been able to take the first tribulation thunder, and its soul has disappeared!
On that day, it was pouring rain!
After the rain, a pool of lake springs appears in the depths of the mountains behind the Beilin Imperial City, the aura of the lake springs surges, from north to south, encounters icebergs and returns, encounters the lake springs only stop, thousands of years of circulation, immortal and indestructible!
Since then, the lake spring has been called Longtan.
And the immortal and immortal aura born in the pond is also called-
Longtan ancestral spirit!
This is also the reason why the Panlong Empire and the Tianfeng Empire are only separated by a mountain and ice field, but the difference in the aura of heaven and earth can be so big!
Thinking of this, Ye Chen pulled the corners of his mouth.
He looked up at the starry sky.
Since the spiritual aura contained on the first floor of the Divine Fire Tower was beneficial and harmless to non-cultivators, he could also rest assured that Qing Yin would give it a try.
Perhaps, with Qing Yin's wit, he can comprehend the doorway of cultivation, and he may also encounter unimaginable opportunities.
That doesn't seem to hurt that way.
"Well, it's pretty good."
Thinking about this, he smiled to himself. But soon, he began to ponder again why Dean Lori wanted to accept Qingyin as an honorary disciple.
It's just that he doesn't have any clue yet.
At this time, a shadow suddenly appeared next to his head with tiles, blocking the moonlight.
Ye Chen tilted his head a little impatiently.
He saw a pair of jade feet, drooping on slippers, or cotton slippers!
"This... What is this?"
Ye Chen couldn't help but wonder and looked up!
Immediately afterwards, he saw a pair of jade legs, smooth and delicate!
"Uh-huh"
Smash it, smash it, smash it, and continue to sweep up.
The next moment, he froze!
"Lin ...... Senior Sister Lin?!"
Ye Chen almost forgot that tomorrow would be the day when the trial of the Divine Fire Tower began. In order to facilitate the convening of the trial tomorrow, he, Shi Dingtian, Lin Ruoxue, and Qing Yin all lived in the courtyard specially arranged by this school tonight.
Qingyin and Lin Ruoxue are in the same room.
He, and Shiding Tianyi.
Because of this, he didn't want to have anything to do with Shidingtian, so as not to have any accidents, so he avoided living with him and came to the roof alone to enjoy the night view.
Just like at this time, outside the courtyard at night, there were many officers and soldiers coming and going, walking and stopping.
But fortunately, these officers and soldiers were only specially dispatched from the Fuchen County Government by the Divine Academy to protect the safety of the four outer courtyard students who participated in the trial of the Divine Fire Tower tonight.
"Ahem!" Ye Chen pretended to cough dryly.
At that time, Lin Ruoxue's eyes were still outside the courtyard.
Before they even knew it.
Leaf dust
Hurriedly sat up, his eyes quickly converged, pretending to look at the officers and soldiers, and then, at the moment when the dry cough fell, he raised his head and smiled awkwardly: "Eh! Your Royal Highness, why are you here? Where's Qingyin?"
"Qingyin is asleep, I saw someone on the roof, came up to take a look, I didn't expect you to be here."
Lin Ruoxue responded.
After answering the young man's doubts, she smoothed the hem of her skirt, slipped to the side of her legs, and sat next to Ye Chen.
Putting away her gaze, Lin Ruoxue said softly, "What are you thinking about when you're still outside so late?"
Ye Chen smiled: "Go back to Her Royal Highness the Princess......
Lin Ruoxue waved her hand, "Your Royal Highness the princess is too blunt, let's call it Senior Sister."
"Uh, Senior Sister?"
"Well, that's just right."
"Okay." Ye Chen squinted his eyes and smiled, and continued: "Actually, I don't think about anything, I just think that these officers and soldiers are all people from the Fuchen County Government, and they are ordered to protect us here, but they don't know that the initiator of everything is actually among them, which is a little sad."
"Is it sad...... After listening carefully to Ye Chen's words, Lin Ruoxue sighed, "Maybe there is some sadness, but they are just acting on orders."
After that, she opened the space ring, took out a square seal, and continued: "Just like this thing, it symbolizes imperial power, with this thing, now, if I tell them who is the murderer of whom, they will also go to investigate, as for the process, no one knows, anyway, the result will definitely satisfy me."
"Hmm." Ye Chen nodded.
He looked at the square seal in the girl's hand and said with a smile, "I can understand what Senior Sister means. The power of the king is indeed very great, but the greater the power, the greater the responsibility, just like you, senior sister, as the heir of an empire, there must be a lot of pressure."
"Stress ......"
The things hidden in her heart were suddenly understood, and Lin Ruoxue was a little surprised.
She smiled lightly, but still shook her head, "Not in his position, not in his politics, you are not talking about the pressure of an heir, but the pressure of being the emperor of the Panlong Empire."
"The Emperor's pressure?" Ye Chen tilted his head.
Lin Ruoxue said in a humming voice: "Yes, everyone knows that I am Princess Ruoxue of the royal family, and the only legitimate heir to the throne of the Panlong Empire, but I don't know how much effort my father spent to get those rigid old ministers to agree to me as the prince!"
Looking at the square seal in her hand, Lin Ruoxue had tears in her eyes.
Ye Chen was silent.
He didn't look at Fang Yin, just looked at Lin Ruoxue quietly.
With tears in her eyes, Lin Ruoxue played with the square seal with both hands, and continued: "Father, this year, he is a hundred years old! Back then, the first astrology master of the Imperial City once divined for his father, saying that my family surnamed Dan would win first and then decline in the hands of my father, and my father was furious! ordered someone to behead the astrologer, but he didn't expect that the astrologer would use the spirit sacrifice Gu technique before he died, planting a death Gu on his father's body and placing a death curse. Say, Gu worms don't die! The host will not die!"
Gu worms don't die!
The host won't die?!
Hearing the end, Ye Chen gasped.
A chill down my spine!
"Sacrificial Spirit Gu!"
These four words are connected together, although he has never heard of them, but if they are split, the word single Gu technique is not unfamiliar.
Frowning, Ye Chen asked, "Senior Sister, this Spirit Sacrifice Gu Technique and Gu Technique shouldn't sound like the same thing."
"Yes! Not a thing at all!"
Lin Ruoxue's gaze didn't know when, she had gradually drifted into the distance, and she said slowly: "Sacrificing spirits is an ancient method in the Yunjian Continent, and that astrologer is the demon who fled to the Panlong Empire for refuge in the apocalyptic catastrophe of the Ten Thousand Demons of the Yunjian Continent! In fact, it was nonsense from the beginning, and it killed itself and my father, and suffered for seventy years!"
After speaking, the girl is already a pear blossom with rain.
